YOUR WEDDING & MARRIAGE JOURNEY:

FROM YES TO I DO & BEYOND

WITH OMISHAN ADESUWA

The purpose of this blog is to give some guidance and direction to all of those engaged couples out there who have the desire and want the experience of planning their own wedding. I will give you real, practical advice that you can put into action to start, continue, and complete your wedding planning journey.

After saying yes to the “Will you marry me?” question, our brains (particularly for us women) tend to go right into wedding planning mode. When most couples get engaged, their focus is usually very short sighted. They spend all their time and energy planning for a beautiful wedding, and fail to plan for their marriage. We’ve spent a lot of time talking about wedding planning, so today, let’s talk about marriage planning.

There are many tasks and to-do’s that couples are reminded of while they are in the middle of planning their wedding. But there is one very specific thing that has been omitted from the checklists and to-do lists out there. Sure, its mentioned in a very casual way, but the emphasis on its importance is lacking.

LOVE is in the air and engagement rings are popping up everywhere! Now some of you haven’t been asked that special question just yet, but you can feel it coming. You find yourself bracing yourself every time your partner asks you to go to dinner, or bends down to tie his shoe. You may not know the exact moment it's coming, but you will begin to notice things in his behavior or in his conversation. So, these are just a few things you might want to start to think about when you feel a proposal is on the horizon.

I know that wedding planning can be a daunting task and sometimes you just want to quit. So, to help keep your spirits up and focused on your why, I'm deviating from the usual tips and tricks for wedding planning and, instead, giving you some food for thought to help keep you motivated.

Marriage, on its own, is a huge transition for most people. And the first year is hard enough without adding the burden of debt from your wedding. So, why not start your marriage off on the best foot possible and have a debt free wedding!
